What Sustains Humanity?
Category Archives: Responsibility
Let’s nurture nature
Every bit of matter
In this now is integral
To the whole of existence
Every man made change
Changes our world
In more ways than one
For subtle shifts of energy
Can create massive environmental phenomena
Altering the course of future.
Isn’t it time to recognize
The misses
Alter the errors
And pave the way
For a more responsible
Coexistence
Life is a gift
Let’s nurture nature.
Even a single step matters …
Let’s start with even one of the three things we all can easily do…
1. Grow native plants that survive and thrive easily and create an ecosystem that will improve the biodiversity.
2. Save water recycle waste water lets treat every drop of water as precious.
3. Water plants with water used for washing vegetables rice or lentils.
Then not a single drop of water will be wasted .

Doing good anyway
Do good
And when you do
Think not of acknowledgement
Nor recognition
Do good
From the goodness of your heart
And you will find joy in it.
Make it a practice everyday
To do at least one good deed .
And soon it will become a habit
That happens naturally
And just know
In time…
You will do good anyway

Valley of Reactivity
Between & betwixt spaces
Of pause and activity
In the thinking and doing
Overcome the challenges
Of the conflicts of being.
Move on from valleys of reactions
From impulsive actions
That stems from assumptions
Reach out in responsiveness
Being positively intentional
Leading to clarity
In the deeper listening.

Protect your energy
Self care isn’t selfish
Infact it’s is the need of times
In this fast paced world
That stresses you out
At work or even at home…
It is time to destress
And sustain yourself .
Ways to protect your energy…
If you find yourself running
From one task to another
Without a breather.
May be its time to ask yourself…
When was the last time
You had a hearty laugh?
You took time to treat yourself,
To all that you are fond of?
When was the last time
You took yourself out?
Just follow your instincts
And do all that you can
To make your spirit come alive.
And it’s truly ok to let steam off
eveey once in a while.
You are your responsibility
Protect your energy
And sustain yourself.
Embrace Silence
I am not a trained speaker, nor an expert story teller. In fact I am quite the antithesis for while I deeply enjoy conversing with people than speeches… I have always liked my deeds than talks to show up for me .
And I have sensed the butterflies in my stomach and heard my own beating heart while speaking to a room full of people, many many times in my life.
Like they say, life makes you stand on the razors edge, as much as on varied stages to experience what it is to be vulnerable, only to transform you.
But then I know I have it in me to ace it. After all, the power of my self belief and purpose has always stood out stronger than my vulnerabilities.
Time and time again I have realized how much it is all in our mind. The journey of life through the illusions, our delusions & revelations to the clarity in awareness.
In time I have often sensed that what makes you uncomfortable has your deliverance. In those moments of vulnerability, there is latent strength to overcome the odds.
What seems like an uncomfortable pause…
Can be the reason why what you say is heard and understood.
For if you truly care to sense
For there is much power in the pause,
In the space between two words two thoughts , two moments and two people.
It is waiting for awareness
Embrace the silence
Sense the power in the spaces.
Ease in to the pause
Listen more
Trust yourself
You will find yourself.

Oneness
True intelligence of humanity is in realizing the strength of the intetconnections.
It is the guide to all that we truly are made of .
Oneness of spirit
Oneness in body
Oneness of mind
Aligns us in harmony
To live in tune
With the laws of nature.

Wishing and intending for wonderful New year ahead…
On Intentions and Actions
Whenever we want or intend for something we must also be ready to do something about it.
Here are few ‘Wants ‘and Intentions and what one can to do about it.
If you want happiness try making another happier.
True joy comes to you when you serve another.
Serve yourself some laughter if you want your spirit to feel free.
Fill your day with Gratitude whenever you are looking for Abundance.
And if you want friendship to manifest in life why not start by being your own best friend.
If you are searching for love why not begin to love your self ♥️
Also, choose to take a walk in nature if you are intending for some more insightful perspectives .
I for one can vouch for the creative ideas and reflections that a simple walk brings to me.
Have a beautiful blessed

Life & living
How do you navigate the challenges of life by staying practical?
Acknowledging changes by being adaptable Yet standing up for what you believe, and saying no assertively, when you want to say no, without fear and doubts of what people will say.
Staying humble and grateful yet dedicated & focussed , no matter the vagaries of life.
Being able to move on from errors or failures, without becoming stagnant.
Being kind to oneself with self care.
And then most importantly allowing every failure to become stepping stones of learnings.

Self Reflection
The child they say is the father of the man.
Question yourself
How you were as a child…
How was your childhood?
Here is a little self reflection tool in understanding the self.
Think of yourself as a child, what age do you imagine yourself to be in?
Write down words that come to you when you think of your childhood?
Write down people or places that connect with the words you wrote
You will find yourself connecting the dots…
All of the expressed, repressed and suppressed emotions has much to do with who you become as an adult.
Much of what you felt, are feeling as an adult goes back to what you enjoyed or endured as a child..
Nature works with nurture to create your being.
Each of us have evolved from our experiences. Self reflection is a valuable tool to bring to awareness that however easy or difficult the childhood was, understanding that childhood is your past but the present is with you for you to carve. to make your future.
Now the choice rests with you.

On Mentoring
Trustful Mentorship
The dynamics of mentor mentee relationship is one of trust and confidence.
Building trustful mentorship requires genuine love to help guide people for the better.
Besides the required skills and expertise, mentors having an inclusive, expansive and holistic approach while helping unique pathways for clients, adds to their repertoire to create trustful mentorship .
Clarity and integrity in communication & behaviour , excellent interpersonal skills and empathic attitude add value beyond the experience and expertise of the mentors.
It is important to acknowledge the influence a mentor can have on the mentees decisions be it at work or personal life.
Hence, a good understanding of ethics while handling conflicting opinions biases, & emotional triggers helps empower the mentee than exploit them.
After all, a mentor is someone who guides advice and supports along the way…

(A bit more from my writings On Mentoring)
On coexistence & safe spaces
So we have been keeping a food bowl and water bowl for the hungry and thirsty birds in our terrace garden.
I have seen some occasional birds come in to drink but every day there is a family of squirrels who somehow have made their feeding zone.
So this morning I chanced upon a pigeon carefully perched on the edge of the bowl watching the surrounding environment…
Apprehension & trepidation are the words that comes up when I saw this lone bird feeding for the first time. So much fear and anxiety before dipping her beak into the bowl. So unlike our regular daredevil squirrels dashing into the bowl, this one was mighty cautious and careful and yet so very graceful in her ways…
Watching her I sensed how much she values her freedom. And how much she is relying on her wings to take off at any moment and fly free.
After all in every life, the spirit of freedom aspires to live & fly free in safety, peace & liberation.
Here’s to creating safe spaces for life to coexist, thrive and flourish.

Building Trust in teams
Trust & Idea sharing
Building trust creates a rapport for greater communication.
Besides listening actively, addressing any issues and finding resolutions together immediately builds trust in a team. Being authentically approachable adds to the trust. Creating a transparent process and protocols for idea sharing helps. Showing appreciation for the ideas generated brings forth confidence to share more. Most importantly, giving credit where it is due by acknowledgements fosters trustful teams. Creating a responsive, cohesive and collaborative team requires transperncy in purpose.

Breath well
Take a moment in this now
Check out for yourself
Do you breathe deep or shallow?
Deep breathing eases you
Shallow breathing stresses you
If you breath reaches your navel
You are breathing deep
If your breath reaches the chest
You are breathing shallow.
Our fast paced world is stressful
Deep breathing helps destress.
The science of the breath
Is a dance of awareness
Of the subtlety of power
As much as its strength.
Your own breathing patterns
Changes the energy in & around u.
Your life force energy
Shifts and alters perspectives.
All is a matter of energy
What matters most is the energy
You choose to create.
And the intention behind it.
Start with your breath…
Take a deep breath, breathe well.
